Yeah they need Doyle more than ever at the min. I think his agent was pushing for a move a few weeks back but it's unlikely now

I was told loan yes

His sister said he'd had talks, make of that what you will like 🤣

Been on the bench lately I think so on the comeback trail. Bit of an odd one, unless it's one that has been lined up for a while.

Talk of another incoming player from Plymouth, this one's a lot better though IMO.

Exactly. I think its now becoming glaringly obvious just how key he was, effectively a 5th defender, calm as you like breaking up attacks. A unique calibre of player and there's nobody else even remotely like him at the club.

There's still time for him to leave this window, I have a sneaky suspicion he might too. How on earth can it take 12 months of contract discussions, I mean seriously, for an average championship player if they're genuine about signing one? If Swansea offer anything up to a million he's gone and the best you'll get in replacement is a loan. 2025 Blackburn Rovers......

Kone only signed a new contract in November. Easy to forget that prior to signing for Wycombe he was playing in the Essex senior league, late bloomer or a flash in the pan, only time will tell....

If its the same person i saw mention it, he never gets anything right on the transfer front, very odd man

Fair play, can we not get Suhail added to it though?

Yep people are absolutely insane if they think for one minute any money from the sale of Pears would be reinvested. We’d have Toth first choice then a kid on the bench for the remainder/next season and not spend a penny.

The thing is, it’s been like that for years too at Bristol as well, easily one of the best match day setups in the Championship. Rudy was there pottering about yesterday, I assume he will give feedback and we’ll revamp things at Ewoor soon 😒

With regards to revenue, look at the size of some of the grounds, some massive ones and many above 30, even 50k with a percentage of standing sections, reasonably priced tickets too and the stadiums are always full, they really are putting us to shame the Germans

You’d think with the ridiculous turnover of back room staff we’ve had someone would have come out and spilled the beans on the shambolic goings on behind the scenes at the club, but they never seem to. Are we just giving them a wedge of cash to keep quiet upon their departure? JDT especially seemed more likely than most to let rip, suppose it needs a journo to interview him who has an interest in Rovers though

I doubt it, he'd get bullied every game tbh

He seems to have featured in most games, starting in a fair number. Absolutely no idea what options Cesena have though or who he's competing against. Having watched a decent amount of Italian football though there's a good chance he's deemed TOO attacking to be starting every game....

You can read too much into stats, from the clips I've seen (yeah I know, deceiving too!) He looks strong, pacy and direct, basically a big Dolan upgrade. I doubt Watford fans were buzzing to sign Chakvetadze as his stats didn't look amazing prior to him signing, he's a great little player though.

If there was any truth in the O'brien news, he'd probably rather go to Preston for less money anyway than get fucked about by us again. We've massively impacted his career. It appears he actually enjoyed his time in the US, but it hasn't exactly pushed his career to the next level like a potential promotion and stint in the premier league would have. Still pisses me off thinking about that whole shambles, he was exactly what we needed at that time too 🤬

Ironically given that he's supposedly an attacking player I think he'd offer more from a defensive side of the wing back role than going forward! Certainly can't knock his graft and tracking back in games, just very little offensively....

What an absurd comment, even by your puppies and rainbows mindset.

Heard the same team but wasn't sure on the wing backs. I didn't know Brittain was fit though, he'd make a really good wing back. I said when Sanderson signed I'd like to see a back 3 with Brittain and Beck bombing forward, that's a shame if Beck is out though 😵

Expecting a back 3 of Batth, Hyam and Sanderson. Beck left wing back just not sure about the right.

Where are you plucking these names from? Radulovic who has 2 goals for Huddersfield in league 1?

Waggott would probably have been better staying quiet than issuing that 'statement', talk about insulting people's intelligence. But then again that's how he views us, he thinks we're all thick as pig shit neanderthals from a northern shit hole. How on earth do people attend these fan forums etc and sit in the same room as this man without completely losing it? I simply couldn't do it.

We famously had one player who didn't struggle in Serie B, in fact he's still described as a legend at his old team. Here however.....
